Here is my script:
script.Parent.touched:Connect(function(player)
if player.leaderstats.Stage.Value <1 then
local PlayerPoints = player.leaderstats.Stage
PlayerPoints.Value = PlayerPoints.Value + 1 else
print("Too high value")
end
end)
the error is at
if player.leaderstats.Stage.Value <1 then
The error im getting is leaderstats is not a valid member of mesh parts
Okay so there are a couple of things that you messed up on but don't worry I'll explain:
So the first thing is the touched event is actually with a capital T so it's
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(player)
The next thing is that player is not actually player in this scenario. The touched event returns the part that touched the script.Parent. So in this case it was the humanoid not the player.
So in order to get the player you need to get the player from the character. Do this:
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(partThatWasHit)
local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(partThatWasHit.Parent)
if player.leaderstats.Stage.Value <1 then
local PlayerPoints = player.leaderstats.Stage
PlayerPoints.Value = PlayerPoints.Value + 1 else
print("Too high value")
end
end)
It worked great! Thx C:
The Touched function passes the part that was hit, not the player. There is however a way to get the player from this part using
GetPlayerFromCharacter
Example
local playerService = game:GetService("Players")
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit and hit.Parent then
if playerService:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then
print("A Player has touched this part")
end
end
end)
Now, let's fix your code
local playerService = game:GetService("Players")
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit and hit.Parent then
if playerService:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) then
local playerPoints = player.leaderstats.Stage
if playerPoints ~= nil and playerPoints.Value < 1 then
playerPoints.Value = playerPoints.Value + 1
end
end
end
end)

Maybe you capitalized the L in leaderstats.
what is player in this scenario? Is it game.Players.LocalPlayer
